Would you like a comparison of gas prices from when Clinton left office to after Bush left office? Didnt think so.

Quoting: Dr.DoomLittle

History: Saddam Hussein was dumping crude and selling as much as he could to get as much money as he could as quickly as he could. That's why gas and commodities in general were so cheap and was part on the reason to invade Iraq at that time.

That along with Clinton working with republicans repealing Glass Stegall made money cheap and easy on wall street and lead to this global depression.
